a little Christmas for you...

While it may be too early for this Christmas, there's nothing wrong with revisiting last Christmas, right?

I was going through some photos the other day and I came across this picture I snapped during one of our favorite Holiday traditions...Gingerbread House decorating!

I love that little guy's pretzel arms!

I knew right away that this photo had to be scrapped...

So I grabbed some of the brand new Heidi Swapp Oh What Fun papers and embellishments and set to work!

Here's what I created:

That black & white Buffalo Plaid! GAAAAAAH! There was no question that was the paper I was going to use for my background. And because I loved so many of the other papers, too, I chose to use them in my hand-cut title...

The little pops of black in this collection are so awesome...and I chose to use a few on this page to accent the background paper...

...a little layered snowflake/star adds some dimension...

...and that wood veneer geotag is the perfect finishing touch.

Creating this layout gets me so excited for the holidays! But I'll still wait until November before I start decorating the house...probably.
